A few months passed since their opening concert and Super Show 3 went on just fine. ____ no longer had trouble dancing on stage as she had slowly gotten used to the crowd and bashing. At the same time, Donghae and ____ didn't go out for dates, but mostly visited each other's dorm or simply hang out in the practice room in the office building. Fans didn't suspect ____ at all as she looked different on and off stage because of all the make up and hairdo. Fans simply passed her off as one of the residents living in the same building as SJ. On the other hand, it was easier for Donghae to access SM Academy as many of his labelmates used the facilities there. Besides, there was high security to ensure there were no trespassers. So far, everything was going smoothly. 

It was a fine morning, when Donghae decided to surprise ____. He always had something up his sleeves. He had just finished his one of his schedule for the day and was on the way back to his dorm when he decided to visit ____ at her dorm instead. Besides, it has been about 3 days since they last saw each other.

DONGHAE'S POV

I smiled as I greeted the security guard at the guard house. It was still pretty early in the morning, ____ should still be sleeping now. I entered the block she was staying in and went up to her dorm. I had figured out the passcode for her dorm even before she told me. It was silly but cute at the same time - our birth months. 

I entered the dorm quietly, hoping not to wake her up. The house was neat and tidy so I supposed she had the whole day free yesterday to clean. There was no sign of her around the house, but I noticed that her bedroom door was still closed. I was right. That pig, keke. 

I slowly opened the door, trying to make as little noise as possible before closing it behind me. There she was, her hair in a mess, lying amongst the many pillows on her bed, her blanket on the floor, hugging the teddy bear I bought for her recently. She looked cute pouting as she slept, hehe. I quietly walked over to one side of her bed, tucking lose strands of hair behind her ear. I laid down beside her, propping myself on my elbow. She looked beautiful even when she slept, aigoo. 

YOUR POV

The ruffling of sheets woke me up from my sleep. I was a light sleeper. I turned around, half awake.

"..Sorry hun," Donghae smiled sheepishly, "I didn't mean to wake you up.. Go back to sleep, it's still early.." 

Ah, so it was Hae. "Then what are you doing here now..?" I asked with my eyes closed as I rested my head on his chest. 

"I had schedule in the morning.." he said combing through my hair.

"Oh.." I mumbled. I was pretty tired from all the cleaning up yesterday. I placed my arm over his stomach as I fell back to sleep with my head on his chest.

He, too, fell asleep after a while.

I didn't know what time it was exactly but it was getting late. So I got up, careful not to disturb Donghae. He wasn't a light sleeper so it wasn't too bad. I went to take a quick shower and made my way to the kitchen to cut some fruits for him. He probably had his breakfast already, well at least I guess so. 

I was wrapping the cling wrap around the half cut fruit when I felt someone hug me from the back and rest his head on my shoulder. It caught me off guard for a moment but I chuckled, knowing it was Donghae. I turned my head to give him a kiss on his cheek.

"Awake already, sleepy head ?" I smiled, "I've cut you some fruits."

"Ne.." He sounded a little groggy. 

His surprise visits in the morning like these often brighten up my mood for the day. Though I'd very much love to be the one he sees the moment he wakes up each morning, it would be inconvenient as he had Leeteuk as his roommate back in his dorm instead of a room to his own. I guess it would be awkward so..I never tried.

------A few days later------

DONGHAE'S POV

We were in Guangzhou now. ____ and I would be spending out first christmas here doing a concert. The concert venue was outdoors and the weather was freezing. Plus, it had started to rain. I wasn't sure if we were to carry on with our concert. 

As much as we hated to go out in the inhuman weather, rehearsals went on as per normal. ____, as usual, walked around the seats in the arena, studying the stage and the different views the audience would have before giving us some feedback. I had already warned her though, to just skip her habit for today. The weather was freezing and she would definitely get a cold in such a weather. Unfortunately, I can never win her when it comes to our small arguments concerning work. She'd out talk me. All. The time. Sometimes I wondered who the 'boyfriend' was.

------------------------------------------------

It wasn't long before the concert started. Donghae had negotiated with the stylist to change ____'s outfit just for today. The members were already freezing despite wearing long sleeved shirts and jeans, yet ____ had to wear a tank top and shorts. The stylist however said that they couldn't, as they would get into trouble with the producer. This made Donghae slightly irritated than he already was before because of the weather. 

Nevertheless, their stage started and ended smoothly. ____ was complimented for her professionalism for maintaining her composure in the cold weather. Donghae, being the sweetheart that he is, placed his winter coat over her before rushing to change into his next set of clothes. 

Despite the uncooperative weather, the fans continued cheering their idols on and the members ended their concert smoothly, despite slipping a few times on stage. It wasn't long before they started packing up to leave the arena.

YOUR POV

Damn ! Where is it !! I panicked. I thought I left my phone in the pocket of my coat ! I rummaged through my bags, searched everywhere backstage but there was no sign of it. The dancers were too, helping along with the search. I was too preoccupied I didn't even noticed Donghae had came to check if I needed help packing and getting ready to leave.

"What are you looking for ?" He asked, concerned. He could see the troubled expression I had on my face.

I bit my lip. I didn't dare to tell him. He'd tell me off for being careless like the last time when I left my wallet beside the vending machine.

"You lost something again ?" Damn. He knew me too well.

"Oppa, I..I t-think I lost my phone.." I managed to stutter.

He stared at me for a while before his eyes widened. "YOUR PHONE ?! How could you lose your phone !!" He too, panicked. "When did you last see it ?" 

"I..d-don't know. I mean, the last time I used it was...on the car." I said timidly.

"W-what ? Aish ! Just wait I'll get manager hyung's help." He said as he hurried out of the room.

Well done ____, you did it again. I thought. I continued searching for my phone. I couldn't help but feel scared. What if I didn't lose it backstage ? What if someone else had picked it up and seen all the photographs I took with Donghae and his cheesy messages ? I couldn't help but sob. Yes, a very crybaby person I am. I'd probably get into a lot of trouble.

DONGHAE'S POV

How could she be so careless ? It's her phone !! 

"Hyung ! ___ lost her phone, she can't find it backstage.." I told him, also slightly afraid of hearing his reply.

The manager then immediately got the staff and the cleaners who were currently cleaning up the area to search for it. After all, he knew the members were close to the dancers and the staff and they often took selcas together. If someone were to pick it up, rumours would spread and he himself would get into trouble with Lee Soo Man too. 

But I couldn't just sit here and wait. I'm gonna help too. Perhaps she dropped it while she was walking around the arena. Ohwait, if she dropped it in the arena then..a fan..photos.. NO THAT CAN'T HAPPEN ! I dashed out into the freezing cold weather, ignoring the rain, not caring if I didn't have my winter coat on. I searched high and low among the thousands of seat in the arena, my fingers going numb from the cold. Where was it ?! 

Just when I thought we could leave this place and return to the comfort of our hotel.

YOUR POV

I asked around for Donghae, the staff were all searching around for my phone and I couldn't help but feel bad. Where did he go ? I put on my winter coat and walked out of backstage. Maybe I dropped it somewhere in the seats. I hope not. 

I went out, shivering. I could see Donghae from afar, searching anxiously for my phone, panting as he did. He wasn't wearing his coat and it made me feel guilty. 

I ran towards him. "Oppa, I'll look for it here. You go back in, you'd get a cold.." 

"Don't care about me, ____. If we don't find it we're in deep trouble," he said, not bothering to look at me. He was obviously frustrated.

____________________________

The staff searched for about half an hour but they couldn't find anything. They looked everywhere - backstage, the seats, moshpit, rest rooms. Everywhere, but they just couldn't find it. 

"Then I guess..we can't help it. Let's just get back to the hotel. I told the organiser to hand it to us if they were to find it." The manager said.

"I'm sorry.. Really sorry.." ____ apologised profusely. She felt bad for having to trouble everyone and delay their journey back to the hotel to get some rest.

Donghae on the other hand simply rubbed his temples. He knew the dire consequences of being discovered, but he didn't want to face it. 

After a while, they reached their hotel and they all went in to their respective rooms. He had yet to speak to _____ every since the search for her phone. He had to admit he was slightly annoyed of how careless she was to lose something so important, so he didn't want to talk about it to prevent them from quarelling. Besides, if she really did dropped it among the seats, hadn't he already warned her not to walk around there in the cold weather ? He sighed.

He placed his haversack down on the chair and checked his iPad on the bed for any news on the internet. That was his daily routine everytime he got back to the dorm or his hotel room.

He checked allkpop.com, his homepage, and for a moment got a shock of his life when he found out that a picture of ____ and him had made the headlines.

just got real. This can't be happening, he thought.
